I found you really do need a Thin wall socket for the centre spark plug - I had a set of thin walled sockets but still ended up buying the one from MotorWorks and yes you do need the tool to pull out the stick coil.
There would appear to be a surfeit of prolixity and sesquipedalian content today please do not use a big word when a singularly un-loquacious and diminutive linguistic expression will satisfactorily accomplish the contemporary necessity

Until you pierce the coil or put scratches on your head coversTapio wrote:I'm sure there's a stick coil puller in the tool kit that comes with the bike. It's worthless. Two screwdrivers work much better.

I've got one of these, although from memory I only paid around £6/7 for it -

Hi Pete, Do they need to be metal ? are they difficult to pull out then as have not tried removing one yet.
No, they don't need to be. I've never had an original one - I think they're a metal spring thing that hooks round opposite sides of the coil end to give you the 'grip' needed to pull it off. They're very similar to the ones that come with cars to pull off wheelnut caps. The one in the link appealed to me because its machined from a solid chunk of aluminium.....very nice!
The coil isn't hard to get out, but it does need a firm pull, so you need something with a good grip. Mine 'bites' around most of the coil end - the original type (I think) just grips at 2 points.

Hi Pete certainly built to last but could a tool that is made of metallic material mark the paint ?
